What types of employment actions do anti-discrimination laws cover?

Anti-discrimination laws cover most aspects of your employment. From the time you are hired, to the pay that is set for you, and then any promotions you seek while employed. The anti-discrimination and anti-retaliation laws are going to make sure that all of those decisions are made based on merit and not because of a protected characteristic such as your age, your gender, your religion or anything else of that nature.
